FEATURES

Auto-back-flush program, all groups pressurize and discharge simultaneously 8 times.
Energy saving hot water system. Some cold is added to the hot water, so less heated water is needed.
This mix provides a steady, non-spattering stream with the correct temperature to prepare Americanos.
The hot water is controlled by a quick to adjust timer.
Choice of touch pad to activate the group, offering 4 automatic volumes plus continuous, or the Bastone lever,
offering 2 automatic volumes plus continuous. The touch pad can easily be swapped for a Bastone bracket, or vice versa, even later.
Drip tray adjustable in height, optionally a raised tray for espresso cups is available.
Stainless steel filter holders with KvdW POM handles.
PID controlled temperature, with energy saving Eco mode for nights and/or weekends.
Standard equipped with a Progressive Pre-Infusion Cylinder per group. This allows a finer grind, creating more surface,
so a higher yield in the cup, less chance on channelling, preventing fines to travel down.
Wide choice in filter baskets, both sizes as types.
Rubber group gaskets remain flexible forever, do not become hard or brittle.
Membrane type group screen, very nice dispersion, less coffee sucked up by discharge of pressure at end of extraction. Remains clean longer.
Heavily protected heating element (extra safety level probe, cut-out switch with feeler against element in water,
machine shuts down when any of the solenoid valves remains open for longer than 120 seconds).
Entire frame in stainless steel only, powder coated in crackle black.
Large boiler capacity: 13ltr. with Duette, 19ltr. for the Triplette.
Elevated position of body, easy cleaning of bar surface.
